PART1
You should be thinking about the potential outcomes from the implementation of your project plan. What are those potential outcomes, and how could they be measured?
Directions
The assignment will be structured in a presentation format, with in-text and reference citations formatted consistently according to 7th edition APA guidelines.
The presentation needs to include the following:
·
Slide 1– Title slide
·
Slide 2– The Problem Statement and the Aim Statement from your Unit 3 paper assignment.
·
Slide 3– An overview of the strategy/intervention that you selected to address the problem from your Unit 5 assignment
·
Slide 4 – A brief overview of the anticipated/desired outcomes of your selected strategy/intervention, expanding on what you have identified in your Aim Statement
·
Slide 5– An overview of the evaluation measure(s) you will utilize to determine if your selected strategy/intervention was effective.
· Below are some examples of types of measures you may wish to approach or describe how you would evaluate the intervention:
· A structure evaluation, which includes the characteristics of the setting where care occurs – the infrastructure, staffing, and policies in place (i.e., nurse-to-patient ratio).
· A process evaluation refers to the actions or steps taken to provide care, including what is done during delivery (i.e., timely sepsis treatment).
· An outcome evaluation is the result of care delivered – changes in patient health or behavior (i.e., 30-day readmissions rates).
· Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) are reports directly from patients about their health status, symptoms, or quality of life (i.e., PROMIS Global Health).
· Patient-Reported Experience Measures (PREMs) are reports from patients about their experience with care – communication, respect, and accessibility (i.e., HCAHPS, CAHPS, and Press Ganey)
· A direct measure captures observable evidence of knowledge, behavior, or performance – actual outcomes or actions (i.e., reduction in hospital-acquired infections after implementing a new protocol).
· An indirect measure reflects perceptions, satisfaction, or confidence and does not directly measure the activity or outcome itself (i.e., staff survey on perceived confidence using a new triage tool)
· NOTE: Advanced graduate-level scholarship requires a well-articulated and in-depth overview of the identified measure(s). Consider utilizing the ‘Notes’ section of the slide if needed to provide additional details.
·
NOTE:
Be sure to support your discussion of your identified processes with scholarly resources that will be used in your Unit 6 Matrix #11-15.
·
Slide 6– Provide an overview of the type of information/data you will need to collect and utilize in the evaluation process.
· NOTE: Advanced graduate-level scholarship requires a well-articulated and in-depth overview of the information/data that will need to be collected/utilized; consider utilizing the ‘Notes’ section of the slide if needed to provide additional details
· NOTE: Be sure to support your discussion of information/data with scholarly resources.
·
Slides 7 and 8– Describe a
minimum of two approaches you will utilize to gather the information/data required for evaluating the effect of the strategy/intervention.
· NOTE: Advanced graduate-level scholarship requires a well-articulated and in-depth overview of the approaches that you plan to utilize; consider utilizing the ‘Notes’ section of the slide if needed to provide additional details
· NOTE: Be sure to support your selected evaluation measure(s) and approaches with scholarly resources.
·
Slide 9– Reference citations list
Direct access to full-text articles cited is essential for grading. Either upload all evidence along with your presentation or be sure an activated link is provided within your citation so that faculty evaluators can readily access the articles that you are referencing in your paper and add the presentation.
